The book itself is a curious artifact, not showy in its technology but complex and extremely efficient: a really neat little device, compact, often very pleasant to look at and handle, that can last decades, even centuries. It doesn’t have to be plugged in, activated, or performed by a machine; all it needs is light, a human eye, and a human mind. It is not one of a kind, and it is not ephemeral. It lasts. It is reliable. If a book told you something when you were fifteen, it will tell it to you again when you’re fifty, though you may understand it so differently that it seems you’re reading a whole new book.

Choosing the Right Method
(⁠。⁠•̀⁠ᴗ⁠-⁠)⁠✧ advice
Tumblr media
Engaging in the process of learning something new, such as mastering a foreign language like Japanese, is something that requires a strategic approach. One of the fundamental principles that can be a game changer is the steadfast clarity of our goals. Without a doubt, the destination we have in mind plays an indispensable role in shaping the path we traverse.
Let's step into the world of learning Japanese. Remembering why we're doing it is crucial. Is it to grasp anime conversations? Or to enjoy manga in its original language? Or perhaps to have heart-to-heart chats with Japanese friends? Whatever it is, this "why" is like the heart of our journey, guiding us toward a clear goal.
Yet, it's not merely enough to have a destination in mind; the vehicles we choose to undertake this journey matter just as much. When it comes to learning languages, the methods and tools we pick are like the vehicles taking us to our language goals. For example, if we want to chat fluently with native speakers, a strategy focused on practicing conversations becomes super important. But if we're into understanding anime stories better, a method that helps us decode everyday dialogues might be the best way forward.
In simple terms, our goals and methods go hand in hand. We need to wisely choose a method that matches our goal. Customizing how we learn is essential. Think of it like wearing a tailored suit – it fits us perfectly, allowing us to move easily and reach our goals effectively.
Moreover, the resources we have are like our learning toolkit – they're very important. Just like a carpenter picks the right tool for each job, we should choose our resources carefully. Whether it's language apps, textbooks, online lessons, or language exchange platforms, they should match our methods and help us move closer to our goals.
To sum it up, mastering a new skill, especially a language, showcases how adaptable and resilient we are. To tackle this journey effectively, we need to sync our goals, methods, and resources seamlessly. Our 'why' shapes our path and gives it meaning. Customized methods act as guides through uncharted linguistic waters, while resources empower our progress. This collaboration creates a powerful trio, driving us toward success, making our journey convincing and consistently triumphant.

How I coordinate my chaotic life right now:
I wanted to share some of my solutions for helping myself with my desorganization and clumsiness:
1. My "wrist office":
(The bracelet-bag-thing was called that way when I ordered it.)
I added a solution for attaching a transparent bag onto the "wrist office" - so I can directly see the content (like some notes).
Tumblr media
I added a velcro place for two numbers onto the tiny transparent bag - say, to attach the current date:
I created some number velcro patches. (I created 1 and 2 twice, as there are two dates per month were you need two same numbers - (11 and 22). Hence, the other numbers are only made once.)
Then I created a patched ruler where I can collect all number patches, so I can fastly exchange them at the transparent bag when needed.
Tumblr media
2. My wallet:
- with a 4-coloured ballpoint pen (for quick notes)
- with an attached spiral notebook at the back
Tumblr media Tumblr media
- with a tiny booklet with PVC sleeves (for collecting important information, and/or storing pictures/quotes/affirming or inspiring stuff I enjoy) [not filled yet]:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
- The notebook at the back has the perfect length so I can secure the front with a hair tie:
Tumblr media
As the notebook's back is "porous" (It's cardboard material, which suffers under being carried around all the time), I Improved by attaching an additional PVC sleeve.

7/100 efficient productivity challenge? Or studying when you are extremely tired...
People say it is all about habit and discipline. However, I have experienced it is energy that drives us even in the study sessions.
It is not just the motivation. We should learn how to calibrate our energy throughout the day. So... let us try to be efficient tonight.

Happy World Building Wednesday! We are still relatively new to each other's properties, so tell me about a fun detail that you don't usually get to talk about! Maybe something you know but doesn't actually show up in the story or anything that you're really proud of :)
Mmmm. I'll do this for Peasant and the Legendarium! Mild spoilers for a back-end nontextual Peasant magic information.
Peasant's the worldbuilding-lightest world I've done, specifically because, as I believe I've mentioned -- the world was constructed entirely for Emilia's sake. I had a character vibe that I wanted and needed for the project to come alive, and I had my pride as a writer, so I needed to understand what made Emilia like that. So I just...scratch built the whole world such that a character like Emilia could exist? She is the Empire, the Imperial Majesty and custom, crystallized into a person. She's so good at thaumaturgy because, in part, she is thaumaturgy. Thaumaturgy made the Empire, and the Empire made HER.
Which is also a great segue into an actual worldbuilding detail, which is that the magic system in Peasant is actually way more complicated than anyone knows, and is significantly more subtle! The only person who might be able to identify this is Noam, and none of his words would be able to explain exactly what happens to everyone else...in a way they'd understand. Thaumaturgy is active, but there's a whole swathe of passive world implications to how it works, many of which funnel into the agents of the Empire -- a positive feedback loop that continues to propel the Imperial crop above the rest of the world. Emilia is the perfect heir because she stepped into that role, and because the Empire demanded a perfect heir, and so Emilia became it. It's extremely soft and fuzzy, and appears most obviously in how scenes bend around Emilia. She is the Most Important Thing there, and she Knows It, and so does the world. Noam picks this up. Noam calls it something, but I'm not entirely sure what. We don't get a lot of an idea of what Noam's thinking....
For the LEGENDARIUM, one thing that I really desperately love and will probably not get to actually talk about in-text is the level of...integration? Between civilizations and the landscape. The continent is old, having a massive history of cultivation and development that spans way more than the 300-odd years after the Age of Powder and the subsequent cataclysm. The world was old when gunpowder was invented, and the world was old when the Mordan Empire was founded, and that Empire is functionally from the dawn of time already!
One of the quiet ways this manifests is...a lot of environments, though their stewards were killed, lost, or scattered, are just...more habitable. More bountiful. Travel is easier, because long ago, elves cultivated all these lands into massive food oases, just because they could, and they were there. Nomad-paths wind in and through the hills and terrain, and old, old, old campsites are worn into stone and cliff and cave, having been used for countless generations of nomads on their holy paths. Mordan cities are built and rebuilt and reconstructed and renovated, year in and year out, decade after decade of some of the best engineers in the world redesigning the towns and cities to not only undo the wear of time, but improve and expand upon the city.
Even the wildernesses and the wastes, ruined Erde and cursed Danaan, still bear the stamps of their respective old civilizations -- Erde is built into the damn mountains, that's how old it is. The territories that were Erde have made a good effort of outlasting geological features.
The world is old, old, old, but a lot of those connections are cut, decaying, atrophied -- the woods are no longer actively tended by elves, in most places, and though nomads do their best, they are travelers, not cultivators. Erde is abandoned. Danaan is a graveyard. Sacred sites have gone quiet, tended only by nomads, keeping the faith for if the gods ever grace it again.
It's a somber world.
Thanks for the ask, @tc-doherty! See you around, I'm sure--
